DeweyGill SUBS 26th Sep 2024		78 RPM Jean Goldkette's Orchestra - My Blackbirds Are Bluebirds Now / Don't Be Like That	Added inventory sleeve review
DeweyGill SUBS 25th Sep 2024		78 RPM Jimmy Dorsey - Back To Back / Especially For You	Added missing reverse image
DeweyGill SUBS 25th Sep 2024		78 RPM Swing And Sway With Sammy Kaye - You Can't Say No To A Soldier / Miss Americana	That’s how my Aunt got pregnant.
DeweyGill SUBS 25th Sep 2024		78 RPM Buddy Featherstonhaugh And The Radio Rhythm Club Sextet - Swing Music 1943 Series No. 529 / 530	Recorded June 18, 1943 Buddy’s Grandfather a noted geologist emigrated to the US and married a wealthy heiress. After being involved on the ground floor of a couple of railroads and working for the US government he returned to the UK. Buddy was a recipient of a nice inheritance and it afforded him a luxurious lifestyle to pursue his hobbies in music and as a rather successful race car driver. He spent it all. His estate home was later purchased by Jimmy Page, John Bonham died there.
DeweyGill SUBS 25th Sep 2024		78 RPM Isham Jones' Juniors - Tormented / I've Had The Blues So Long	Added images
DeweyGill SUBS 25th Sep 2024		78 RPM Putney Dandridge - You're A Heavenly Thing / Mr. Bluebird	Images added
DeweyGill SUBS 25th Sep 2024		78 RPM Martha Tilton - Every So Often / All Of Me	Images added. I’m not sure what the deal is with this copy. One side black schellac, one side red. It plays normally with a tad bit of hiss. Like it went through a second process and restamped. The dead wax numbers appear normal
DeweyGill SUBS 25th Sep 2024		78 RPM George Brunis And His Jazz Band - D. D. T. Blues / In The Shade Of The Old Apple Tree	Added images
DeweyGill SUBS 25th Sep 2024		78 RPM Troy Floyd And His Plaza Hotel Orch - Shadowland Blues (Part 1) / Shadowland Blues (Part 2)	Added more legible image, but not necessarily better copy. I might have a slightly better one as this is a dupe
DeweyGill SUBS 24th Sep 2024		78 RPM Leo Reisman - Gay Love / Love (Your Spell Is Everywhere)	Added descriptive inventory sleeve sticker
DeweyGill SUBS 24th Sep 2024		78 RPM Nat Shilkret And The Victor Orchestra - Fioretta / Dream Boat	Adde corner of inventory sleeve
DeweyGill SUBS 24th Sep 2024		78 RPM Emil Coleman And His Riviera Orchestra - What Is There To Say / Moon About Town	Royal Blue. Coleman had about 15 of these in 1933-34, but you seldom ever see them
DeweyGill SUBS 24th Sep 2024		78 RPM Miss Annette Hanshaw - Cherie, I Love You / Don't Take That Black Bottom Away	“Cherie, I Love You” is sung as written without a gender adjustment.
DeweyGill SUBS 24th Sep 2024		78 RPM Dude Skiles And His Vine Street Boys - My Girl / I Can't Give You Anything But Love	Swing band not unlike that era’s Wingy Manone or Louis Prima, led by trumpeter/vocalist Dude Skiles. On the top side, Dude sings the intro, and guitarist (brother?) Jack Skiles sings the refrain. There is an unmentioned celeste on this side, presumably played by pianist Johnny Black. Dude sings the reverse. There is a -1 in the runout on side one, a D in the runout on the reverse, if that helps the owner of the acetate.
DeweyGill SUBS 24th Sep 2024		78 RPM Tex Beneke With The Miller Orchestra - The Blues Of The Record Man / Why Don't We Say We're Sorry	Top side contains one great line and a reason not to be in commercial radio - “Here’s a song he’ll play for life, Written by the sponsor’s wife” Track borrows familiar riffs from Ellington, Tommy Dorsey, and Miller, of course.
DeweyGill SUBS 24th Sep 2024		78 RPM Sam Lanin And His Famous Players - Mona / We'll Build A Little World Of Our Own	While Rust lists a presumptive musician lineup from a few months earlier session for the Smith Ballew side, the above just appears to be an extension of that day’s Sam Lanin session. Smith is the vocalist on “Mona” as well. The remaining three titles for the Ballew session include an instrumental version of the above, a track with an unknown girl vocal (Annette Hanshaw uncredited?), and one more Ballew vocal. The remaining two sides cut at the session under Lanin’s name include another Ballew vocal and an Annette Hanshaw vocal.
DeweyGill SUBS 23rd Sep 2024		78 RPM California Ramblers - The White Star Of Sigma Nu / Love Me Or Leave Me	These are modern arrangements that swing nicely, especially side A
DeweyGill SUBS 23rd Sep 2024		78 RPM Ted Weems - Mysterious Mose / Slappin' That Bass	The recording dates could be consecutive days, but it’s also quite possible this was a late evening session that spilled into the early morning hours the next day. In total, four sides cut with one rejected. The remaining title was paired with a Leo Reisman track. 1929/30 were pivotal years in the transition from the BB (tuba) to the string bass in dance bands. While Country Washburn plays tuba on the other two sides, he switches to SB for the flip. This song only helped the instrument's intrigue and visibility.
DeweyGill SUBS 23rd Sep 2024		78 RPM California Ramblers - The White Star Of Sigma Nu / Love Me Or Leave Me	While vocalist Staffon directed the eight sides cut at this (his only) session, it appears Kirkeby was in charge of that session as well. The musicians are different than the Ramblers group. In fact, some were Joe Haymes sidemen.
DeweyGill SUBS 23rd Sep 2024		78 RPM Stuff Smith - Sam The Vegetable Man / When Paw Was Courtin' Maw	@Mike Gann -Same as Rust. The 1940 date came from a Savoy lp reissue 1980’s with extensive liner notes, which seem incorrect.
DeweyGill SUBS 23rd Sep 2024		78 RPM Stuff Smith - Sam The Vegetable Man / When Paw Was Courtin' Maw	I have two recording dates for this, December 1938, and 1940 Both sides are pretty hot, esp. side 2
DeweyGill SUBS 22nd Sep 2024		78 RPM Tiny Hill - Skirts / I Get The Blues When It Rains	added images
DeweyGill SUBS 22nd Sep 2024		78 RPM Isham Jones Orchestra - Everytime I See You / She Picked It Up In Mexico	This would appear to be around 1950, with the presence of vocalist Bob Allen and also the depiction if a tape reel on the label.
DeweyGill SUBS 22nd Sep 2024		78 RPM Tommy Dorsey - Love Me As I Am / Nine Old Men	Added images
DeweyGill SUBS 22nd Sep 2024		78 RPM Irving Aaronson And His Commanders - Outside / Won't You Tell Me, Hon (When We're Gonna Be One)	Images added
DeweyGill SUBS 22nd Sep 2024		78 RPM Frank Auburn - Lo-Lo / Swingin' In A Hammock	Definitely NOT Scrappy Lambert on B . Sounds like IK on both
DeweyGill SUBS 20th Sep 2024		78 RPM Columbia Quartette - War Song Hits	Added CX images
DeweyGill SUBS 20th Sep 2024		78 RPM Henry Burr And The Peerless Quartette - A Rainbow From The U.S.A. / France We Have Not Forgotten You	Added GY code set, can’t tell if the other set is the same
DeweyGill SUBS 20th Sep 2024		78 RPM Prince's Band - Uncle Sammy's Boys In Camp / Rally To The Call Boys	Added “note the notes” pressing
DeweyGill SUBS 20th Sep 2024		78 RPM Collins And Harlan - The Old Grey Mare / When We Wind Up The Watch On The Rhine	Added IZ pressing
